<p>[QUOTE=&quot;V. Kurt Bellman, post: 3299860, member: 71723&quot;]I have seen some VERY bad outcomes for coins in SDB&#039;s. The PA State Treasurer used to use live auctions for escheated SDB contents of folks who had no heirs, just as I would if for some reason my son would pre-decease me. Anyway, some SDB contents were HORRIBLY corroded. Some in banks that flooded during Hurricane Agnes in 1972. Banks usually do NOT have favorable storage conditions for coins, even short of flooding. The &quot;best&quot; for SDB&#039;s are raw gold coins, since they approach being chemically inert. Silver is meh, and copper is a never-ever proposition.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
